Were They Asking for Too Much, Too?

That did not age well:

First Nations chiefs are expressing outrage and disappointment at the federal government’s decision to appeal a Canadian Human Rights Tribunal ruling ordering Ottawa to pay billions of dollars in compensation to First Nations children and their families separated by a chronically underfunded child-welfare system.

Watch this squabble go pear-shaped. Don't take sides.


However:

According an Environics poll, Liberal support among Indigenous Canadians has plummeted from 41% to 21%.

Meanwhile, the Conservatives have 26%, the NDP have 17%, and the Greens have 16%.

Notably, the Conservatives are up from 15% support in the last election.
